Seattle Mariners vs Texas Rangers prediction

The Rangers probably should be getting the benefit of the doubt at home, and Dane Dunning has been respectable where he’s allowed 10 earned runs in 23 innings. However, Logan Gilbert is the more talented pitcher, and he’s been even better with 7 runs allowed in 27 innings while striking out 29. In 115 at bat against current Rangers, Gilbert is allowing a .235 batting average with 25 strikeouts. This price feels like a steal. I’ll ride with the Mariners on the road.
